    FYI the big foil KING sticker, fades and burns off glass. Also smells terrible when doing so. :anonymous:

    Shit. I’m guessing the same holds true for the medium foil sticker...

    can only confirm the large one, but i would assume accurate. Although it took 6 months in 115* heat to do it.

    Except spring theory bro. More preload is still the same coil rate.

    I’ve only driven it in the neighborhood. Heading back to school tonight, alignment tomorrow, then I’ll actually put some miles on it.

    Feels a little more grounded, I think. It seemed less jumpy and jarring when hitting pot holes and all.

    When I actually put some miles on it, I’ll let you know

    Yes, or don’t have digressive valving. Or get a longer coil

    yes and no.

    But any coil can have coil bind if cranked hard enough, but a spring is a spring. If you're cranked to piss, your ride will most likely suck. But it can also suck with zero preload, all depends on the length/weight.
